------------------------------------------

Ok got it. Thanks for the explanation. Would it make sense to enhance the unit 
test in such a way that this condition is detected?

Also, do u think that we should put this into the 0.15 release?

> Name-node should be able to close empty files.

> When I try to close an empty file, the name-node throws an exception "Could 
> not complete write to file" 
> and issues a warning "NameSystem.completeFile: failed to complete".
> I don't see any reason why empty files should not be allowed.
